it clearly is healthier food than Chicken-fried steak



I can assure you it tastes better as well, quite gamey but with a wonderful crunchy skin

@jkwing , I am not sure how innocence comes into play when eating animals ? , are cows somehow guiltier than dogs ? (Or guinee pigs ?) I know horses are supposed to be quite nice, but mean as hell sometimes , so I take it I can eat those without being struck down by furious anger from above ? Or do I really need to hide under the table next time I eat horse or pony ? Really curious !!

I don't want to lock, warn or ban, but some combination of those may be in the near future.

Suggest that anyone not familiar with the rules read them, suggest that increasingly apparent trolls stop being fed.

Roff, I'll clear the figurative air briefly, then get out.

I know some of you guys are having fun with this character, but IMO things have gotten out of hand.

For what its worth, this is written from Phoenix. During the years I have been here, nobody cared about where anybody lived unless for the occasional social gathering among members, and I've been to four of those. However the OP made the logical leap to blame not selling watches on the Euros, it doesn't make any sense. They're out after you now, but you called them out in no uncertain terms. I should note I have sold several watches here, all but one to Americans.

Please take the jingoistic and religious jargon elsewhere. However, I'd ask the same as to the grilled-animal of-choice business as well. Sorry, but as the owner of a wonderful little pup, it turned my stomach. I'm okay with malcontents being shown the door, but if I was a new Breitling or other watch enthusiast and came upon this string, I'd probably move on.

You do realize that the grilled animal wasn't a pup, right?

I do. However, I had to look much closer given the context in which everything was posted and was presented. By then the damage was done.

I am saddened by all of this. I value the contributions made by the members of this forum but not on this thread.Perhaps this thread should now be locked by the mods. Nothing of value to be gained here now.

I've not been around too much these days, so I haven't been following this post-by-post. But having caught up with it now I do agree that it's time for it to go away.

Nothing else to be gained from it IMO, so the thread is now locked.
